Those who found their wedding rescheduled due to the Covid-19 Pandemic may wish to commemorate the uniqueness of their stories with their own Mask Up egg covered in themes appropriate for the joining of two families. These details are painstakingly expressed in designs emblematic of the kinds of details seen at weddings: dense lace and embroidery, lushly arranged bouquets, draped ruching, and statement textural elements. For those who prefer minimalism, looks akin to embossed paper, or the natural tones of the eggshell itself, these details are their own kind of focal point. But for other families, the simple colorworking of the Compass Key egg, or the solid-color versions dyed as a nod to other themes–blue, for the “somethng blue” recommended in Western lore, red for Hindi brides, etc. may provide a more eyecatching way of highlighting the complexity of textures created in this unique series of pysanka. It’s the perfect way to celebrate welcoming new members to your family, and the uniting of traditions, and additions to your family history.

Several colorways and design options are available for wedding pysanky, so be sure to review all available options to ensure that you have chosen the eggshell that you will be most happy with. This is the shortcut to buy the acid-etched, monochromatic version, with details that emerge in subtle textures and plays with the light, rather than with vivid colors. The drain hole can be placed on top, or on bottom, to allow for choice of display in a cloche/hanging display, or on a stand/on a tabletop.
